Are Studies of High Penetrations of Wind Power Valid?

By Richard D. Patton When examining penetrations of wind power, there seem to be two types of papers. In one type, wind penetration up to 20% is difficult but doable, and in the other type wind penetrations of 50-60% are quite easy. In fact, renewable penetrations of up to 90%-100% are claimed. As an example…

New paper by Ross McKitrick – 'temperature data strongly affected by local population growth'
